2023 Southeast Regional Mine Rescue Contest
We are excited to announce the dates for the 2023 Southeast Regional Mine Recuse Contest. Hosting both Coal and Metal Non-Metal Teams, this contest provides networking, team building, excellent training, and National level problems to help teams prepare for the National stage. This contest has progressed over the years adding realistic training and challenging events.
There will be two days of field competition for both Coal and Metal-Non-Metal teams. Tech, Bench, and First Aid will all be together on last day. All fields will be utilizing the 2023 Rules for their respective division.
We also plan on having a team building Iron Man challenge for those teams who may be interested; this will be similar to the International format.
